Well in a wrestling match Kos would beat GSP I think. If you apply wrestling to an MMA aspect however GSP takes it. These are two different things and alot of people do not realize that.

Absolutely right. Just the same with any discipline. Some BJJ world champs can't win a fight, pro boxers get owned etc etc. Things get very hairy when you apply them in an MMA context, like you said

Hum for now they say nothing. Because before the fight with Hugues, he was training to make the team. And they say nothing and let him do so.

I wrestled in HS myself and from watching them fight I believe GSP could beat him. He took Kos done at will and held him there while Kos was unable to take him down which is most of what wrestling is anyway......

Well I think Hughes would beat Kos easily in an MMA match, it would probably be a good fight to watch as Hughes can finish fights.
